Homeschool Days: Make a Victorian Valentine's Card
February 13, 2026 — 9:00 AM – 10:30 AM
Overview
Much like everything else during the Victorian time period, Valentine’s Day cards were over-the-top in every way. Although Valentine’s Day traditions had been around for centuries, sending cards and commercializing the holiday became popular in the Victorian period.
Adding to this was the very Victorian notion of the “Language of Flowers.” Each type of flower represented a separate emotion or carried an idea.
Join us in making your own Victorian-style Valentine cards while learning about the history of Valentine’s Day. A tour of the museum will be included.
There is a maximum of 12 students per session. Cost for each student is $8 to cover the cost of materials. One parent per family will be included in the sign-up cost at no additional charge.
